Google’s Letting Us Know That The FBI Is Watching Us In New Ways
Google’s Transparency Report is published to show the public what governments and companies want to know about us. It can get pretty personal. In addition, the FBI is now using National Security Letters to obtain information from Google. These NSLs have now been included in the Transparency Report give a general gist on how frequent the FBI is doing this.
FBI Employees Can’t Stop Sexting On Their Government Phones
Fidelity, bravery, integrity. This is the motto of the FBI, and this is the motto of the group of men and women who can’t stop using their government-issued phones to send coworkers dirty dick pics. And while it’s probably never a good idea to sext your coworkers, when you work for what is essentially a group of professional, highly trained stalkers, you’d think one would try to exercise a little restraint or, at the very least, use a phone that isn’t owned by Big Brother.
Exclusive: The Australian Raid On SuperDaE And How A Prank Over The Next Xbox Ended In Corporate Espionage
“They want to ruin my life. I know it.” The man behind these words is none other than the infamous SuperDaE: a man of many names, aliases and occupations.

What The FBI Doesn’t Want You To Know About Its ‘Secret’ Surveillance Techniques
The FBI had to rewrite the book on its domestic surveillance activities in the wake of last January’s landmark Supreme Court decision in United States v Jones. In Jones, a unanimous court held that US federal agents must get a warrant to attach a GPS device to a car to track a suspect for long periods of time.
